Deep down into the desolate depths. A daemonic caliphate of rogue Hillbillies, tremulous Hayseed Balladeers and desperate Gospel pleas. They croon. They yodel. As the torments boil. Cut on microscopic or private-press labels and distributed in minuscule amounts, these Tormented Troubadours sing of Lucifer, His diabolical dreams, suicide, murder, Devil trains, inebriates, fiends and bloodthirsty schemes - all in one handy CD package. Years in the making - 'Hillbillies In Hell' (The Resurrection) presents a further 32 timeless testaments of sins, redemptions and fiery temptations. Mostly issued on forgotten 45s, some of these sides are indescribably rare and are reissued here for the very first time. Caveat emptor. 32 Track CD with 20 page booklet! Exclusive scholarly liner notes by Alvin Lucia! Full dynamic range 2018 remasters direct from the first generation analogue master tapes!

Music coming to terms with changing times ( thow some are definatly havin a giraffe). What do you write about when your redneck sesibilities are way out of wack with contempory opinions ? Simple , tell contempory opinion makers that thier contempory opinions are going to take them straight to hell ( do not pass go, do not collect $200) and proceed to make a few bucks out of the devils music anyhow. Most are great but " Died for love at 3 a.m" deserves mentioning in despatchs as being near perfect. Fans of George Jones , Nick Cave and The Cramps will enjoy ( in my humble).
5.0 out of 5 starsCrazy & weird. If you liked the other volumes you’ll want this one too.

Crazy Weird music. Hard to believe someone actually pressed these records from 1952-1974,they are strange and campy. I personally liked the other volumes better,but this one has 32 tracks!!!! More weird for the dollar.
